V1.2 Enhancer (release) has been sent out to developers who have workbench licenses. It was also distrubuted to the developers at the Developers Conference. The remaining developers will soon be receiving a package in the mail stating how they can get their V1.2 Enhancer. The package will include (YES AGAIN) another developer application.
